The shares will be used to satisfy the exercise of share options by employees or the release of restricted shares, including to Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility (PDMRs) of the Company.

Further to this purchase, the EBT holds a total of 2,814,330 Ordinary Shares which represents 0.87% of the Company's issued share capital (322,085,269 including Treasury shares of 3,748,968). The total number of Ordinary Shares of 10p each in issue (excluding treasury shares) is 318,336,301.
